Very good review with lots of helpful tid bits of knowledge, you are truly one a kind with all the graphics and helpful narration with the flight crew making a huge difference I had the same experience from CHC-SIN VS SIN-SEA crew on SIA made the whole difference. World class page, truly anticipate your next review. Aloha from Hawaii
What a feast for me to find another new video from you..one of your very best, as by now i think you found the right balance between natural sounds, music and voice over...well done!!! Interesting, i did not know that the QSuites had different sizes. And i loved your remark about QR crews virtually running:)) This is sooo true, i experienced it myself..the hardest working crews in the industry. Did you write a compliment note? Just imagine and compare this to those lazy crews of Iberia and the likes..and on LH they would probably even be forbidden to run by their trade union😅🤣 Food looked sensational..also thanks to your excellent filming. One always wonders how they can do it given the poor performance of other airlines. Again thank you for pricing the wine list..which again displays the weakness of QR in the wine department: they invest into their Bordeaus..but the rest is meeeh..EK remains to be much better in this. Finally, and only among ourselves a little secret. At the end of the sandwich bar you turned right towards the sleeping pods. Wrong choice! Next time turn left towards the family area..plenty and usually empty big pods whith real big couches!!! Of course, nobody will wake you up there..which can be a little problem in my experience, after an exciting night in an empty airport with full bars in the lounges🤣😂 Cheers!
I'm beginning to get the feeling you might not be a fan of IB 😂- good to know about the Family Rooms- certainly would have assumed that I wasn't allowed in there haha. Thanks as always for your comments and watching 🙏
That's honestly a very impressive looking business class lounge. I've never seen so many offerings before in any airport O.O Having seen 2 of your QSuites videos covering 2 different aircraft types, I think the lack of a full flat bed option is going to rule this out for me as a potential option. I pay a premium for non-economy primarily for the bed. The food is nice, but the main draw is the bed for me, and unfortunately I really do require a lie flat bed.
For passengers that sleep on their back, I doubt they would (or ever have) noticed it. But for me, it was a deal breaker in terms of sleep. "Luckily", I never have the expectation of true lay flat sleep on any flight, so I'd happily fly with them again. Thanks for watching 🙏
I love your channel boss, excellent videos, i'm about to try this for first time for my upcoming trip to maldives next week, im doing JFK-DOH in business and then DOH-MLE in First Class with qatar as well, super excited for this trip!!
On both QR reviews you picked the exact same dishes as I would choose. Glad to see I made good choices. Once you get enough Oneworld points try QR A380 first say from Sydney. That would be a treat.
You really need to fly ANA's The Room. Many vloggers have moved this to #1 business class. Primary reason is there is only about 50% chance that your Qatar flight will have Q-Suites. They grounded so many aircraft and now are dry leasing other airlines aircraft to run their flights.
I’d love to, but will do it when the price is right since I don’t review sponsored flights 😊 And you’re correct that QSuites aren’t always guaranteed… but The Room Is only available on a handful of flights in the world… so, hard to make that comparison lol. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
There was a vaccination verification that was required and took a couple of days. Plus some other more standard forms all filled out online. I would recommend checking the most up to date info on Sherpa which is my goto resource for all up to date info. You input your nationality and vaccination status (no identity info) and they tell you what documents you need for each flight sector/entry. apply.joinsherpa.com is their page- despite the website name, there no need to apply or join anything to access the info.
Unfortunately they are understaffed. At times only 10 crew where in economy alone they need to roll out 10 carts. Many of them have to handle both the galley and a zone, often having to do 2 carts. US and UK flights are their “high profiles” where the crew levels are higher, but when it comes to Africa or east Asia, they don’t really give too much attention. In fact, is the sectors where they “burn off” the products they need to get rid off from inventory
The crew scheduling makes sense- but also had quite a few Singaporean crew on this flight so my first impression was that it wasn’t going to be the case. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Yes, I was toying with the idea but being stubborn since the hotel rate was more than the First Class Lounge rate 😂. Likely would have gone there if the quiet room wasn't available. Thanks for watching 🙏
I am trying to find out what are the busiest hours at Hamad International Airport? 🤔 Cannot find any information on this. Is the Business Lounge packed from 3am to 5am? I really want to squeeze a shower between my flight but i'm super concerned that the showers will be really busy and I won't be able to 😭
Based on their banks at the moment 03:00-05:00 would be the most quiet time of the overnight/morning period. The banks at that time are: 01:00-03:00 Departure 04:00-06:00 Arrival 07:00-09:00 Departure Luckily for you 03:00-04:00 specifically should be very quiet. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Great video, especially your review of the seat locations and sizes. Any thoughts on rows 11 & 12? They seem to be oddly placed, especially seat 11A which is right next to the bathroom. Seems bothersome, but not sure if you had a chance to assess in person?
I have flown in QSuites many times and have loved all of it each time, except for one flight. A few weeks ago I was flying from Doha to Seattle. On the provided menu, we are told that meals are all carte, order anything at any time. Shortly after take-off, the flight attendant came to take my order. It was morning in Doha but I wanted to order the dinner option so that my internal clock would be more ready for Seattle time. She was clearly annoyed that I did not want the breakfast option. I said that I wanted the dinner option and then she curtly said, "Well, it will take some time to heat it up". I was pretty frustrated with her attitude. I eventually received my meal, with no refill on my water or wine. When it was a couple of hours before landing, she came again and I reminded her that I wanted the breakfast option. She was again frustrated and said that it would "take time to heat it". When she brought it to me there was no breakfast bread basket one would normally receive. I asked her about it and she replied, again curtly, "None of it is heated". That was it. Her attitude throughout the flight was terrible, as if we were inconveniencing her. I can roll with just about anything. But, when so much money is paid for the QSuite, I expect "service with a smile", or at least service without a scowl. And, if the menu tells passengers we can have any option at any time, either do it or do not give us the option. I sent the feedback to Qatar but I doubt if I will receive a reply. My wife and I are flying in Qsuites next month and I still look forward to it. I think my experience was an aberration.😊
Please make an ASMR version of channel with the original sounds of the airport, flight, engine noises, cutlery hitting the plate etc.. Sometimes I just want to relax and watch travel videos and feel as if I am right in it.
I'll definitely check the Roam Above video - I love Singapore landings. I've read that lounge food in Doha (both Al Safwa and Al Mourjan) is partially prepared offsite due to airport regulations prohibiting open flames. If all they can do is reheat meals it has an impact on quality.
If that's it then certainly it might be part of the reason, but I mean... I've had food in the air that was cooked better 😂... Not to mention on cruise ships that follow the same regulations. Everyone has a sous vide machine these days! haha Thanks for watching 🙏
Nice video! I’ll watch more in the future. One suggestion: on your next layover in Doha, I highly recommend spending the extra money for a one or two night layover in town. Doha is an interesting city and you can always arrange with the hotel concierge to have a half-day city tour. Lots to see in Qatar and the layover is a great way to catch up on badly needed sleep. PS: I’m like you in that I cannot sleep on long-haul flights.
Will definitely be up for it in the future but this was a last minute booking (due to cancellations on another airline) and all of my Singapore and Bali itinerary was already booked. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
I Will Fly DOH-SIN on 350 Q-suite next january. Basic business class fare so no seat selection and no lounge access. Might evaluate to upgrade to avoid those 1 row seat auto selection. 😅..great video though.
Travelled in a Q suite from Doha to Denpasar in Bali. To be honest I wasn’t all that impressed. I’m quite a big man, 6ft 3inch 260lb, and I found it a bit cramped. Qatar’s ordinary business class seat are more comfortable as far as I am concerned.
We are similar in size and I will say if you get a chance, the 777 QSuites are noticeably wider (just 1.5", but makes a huge difference). Thanks for watching 🩴
Flying LAX - DOH in a few months. So assuming highly avoid 1k and 1A then? Heard from others they were a great option but after watching this 5A/K might be a better option…
Your channel has the right energy for a boomer as my teenage son calls me when I have taken him in 1st class and business all around Asia. suggestion first class experience at narita Japan airlines. Been watching quite a few of your videos last few days big big thumbs up.
Your reviews from flights makes more fun and joy then the hotel reviews. Do you actually plan to review the airport itself in the future? By the way, your hotel reviews are great too😁
They're trying to accomplish two different things, so sure, the audience differs a bit between the two. As far as airport reviews, no it's not something feasible for me at this time. If you consider that most airports/airlines won't let you checkin more than 3 hours in advance, that gives you maximum 2 hours of "free" time inside the airport- I fill most of that time as it is filming for the trip report :) Thanks for watching 🙏
I have- and after a lot of research and speaking to creator buddies I know- one having one of the biggest food channels on YT- I decided it was a no go for a few reasons, primarily bc it’s a very hard niche to break into because there are so so so many people doing it already. 2nd part is the meaningfully successful channels in that genre are (my opinion) more personality based than they are about the actual food and as much as I value my privacy, you’re not gonna see me on camera anytime soon 😂
I’ll add, this is what lead me to the Roam and Roam Above channels that I started a couple months ago. For Roam Above I’m beginning to film full length flights on the trip I’m on now.
I think I enjoyed the review , I got the impression that you really didn’t like the experience all that much , in any case good luck and is the flip flop tag meaning you travel in “thongs” as we know them
As I said, it was a great flight by any standards, but couldn’t compare to my flight a few hours prior, which you can find a review of on my channel. And yes. Flip Flops as in the things you wear on your feet and the general vacation vibes of them. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
What I don't understand is, after buying such an expensive business class ticket in Q-Suite, you still have to pay another $10 bucks to use their inflight Wi-Fi !!!?! How classless and cheap are they? I paid $7290.38 my flight from COK to IAH for business class, and then I was asked to pay again when I asked for in-flight Wi-Fi which I had to pay. The whole reason I got a seat in Q-suite on this flight was so that I could work in peace and left alone.
I wish it was free too, but it’s standard practice. How on earth did you have a $7000 fare from India though? Did you buy the ticket like 8 minutes before departure? I haven’t seen fates that high since the 00s.
Tbf, I don’t know why my fare was so high. I booked on Jan 8th and that was the fare they charged me. I fly this route regularly, and Singapore airlines Biz class fare is way cheaper and the flight is much more roomier and comfortable.
Odd that you did not have transit security. When we transferred in late April, along with numerous other occasions, we had to go through transit security immediately after entering the building from our initial flight from Seattle…
Thought it was odd myself. I was the 3rd person off the flight and we walked up the jet bridge with the option of turning right down a corridor or walking straight through an (unmanned) open door into the terminal. We all chose the later 😂. I myself have gone through security on transfer in Doha before also- thought there was some change in regulation. Perhaps I didn't know I was involved in a security breach! 🤫 Thanks for watching 🙏
This is my first time watching one of your videos and I enjoyed it very much, you tell it like it is, are very easy to understand and not at all boring. I subscribed and will be watching all your videos.
Enjoyed your review - Having flown QR numerous times I think the standard is generally very good - it’s always about the crew as food is consistently the same and of a high level of deliciousness for airline offerings
Kevin, I really enjoyed watching your video travelling on Qatar Airways. Now I have travelled numerous times, and on various airlines, but nothing beats Qatar Airways, its business class suites and its 5-star premium lounges at DOH. Keep up the good work !
@@tfft there is no way that actually made me laugh. Someone broke my humour 😂. I mean they are expensive and when someone like me don’t face a deep wallet is there a way you find them on the cheap. Or with miles?
hello. quick suggestion - most people like to see the food menu in detail. I think if you split up the appetizers/mains/dessert (just crop the image so its zoomed in), and give them 5 seconds each, you'll get a a fair amount of interest in that section.
What you're suggesting is certainly another way I may go in the future. From the four trip reports from JL and QR I'm tracking how many people actually do pause the video at the menus so that I can determine the best way to go for future flights. Trying to balance the fact that: 1. some people cannot easily zoom in, 2. some people are more interested in the drink offering, 3. some as you say want to focus on the food, 4. some want to see every square inch of the thing :) we shall see what it evolves to, but certainly may well be as you describe. Thanks for watching 🙏
Hello Benjamin Breeg. Quick suggestion - most people like to see your mouth shut in detail. I think if you split up your tongue/lips/mouth (just crop the vocal cords so it's zoomed out), and give them 5 seconds each, you'll get a a fair amount of interest in that section.
Well you’re a charming fella aren’t ya? Thanks for the comment though, since even rude ones benefit the video 😍 FYI, all of the excitement, pyrotechnics and jazz hands generally start at the seven minute mark.
Qatar Airways ticks all the boxes & would be my airline of choice when we fly from SYD to LHR . However during COVID restriction there was an incidence in 2020 whereby nine Australian women taken off a Qatar Airways flight bound for Sydney on 2nd October 2020 and led through the bowels of the Hamad International airport to what appeared to be a dark carpark or turning circle, where three ambulances were waiting to perform medical examinations to determine if any of the women had recently given birth because a newly born baby was found abandoned in one of the airport bath room .The 9 women were told to remove their underwear in order to be examined. The Australian foreign affairs minister at that time , Marise Payne, said it was a “a grossly, grossly disturbing, offensive, concerning set of events”. I knew it is not the fault of Qatar Airways . However the treatment of those 9 Australian women are contravened to the basic human rights so Doha airport should be avoided at all cost unless you want to be strip searched
Exactly why I wouldn't fly Qatar. As a female I don't want to run the risk of assault which is exactly what happened to these women. I don't care how good they are. Their hub makes it a dangerous location for a female.

I so agree!!
I was so anxious when I read that QR will offer private cabins in Business Class but this is a bad joke.

I have never spent more than 15 min at SIN immigration. We have the same passport.
Then surely you didn’t enter Singapore during Covid lol. Every pax had all documents manually checked.
By the way, what were the Covid related paperwork protocols upon entry into Singapore? Do they just require proof of vaccination and that’s it?
There was a vaccination verification that was required and took a couple of days. Plus some other more standard forms all filled out online. I would recommend checking the most up to date info on Sherpa which is my goto resource for all up to date info.

Unfortunately they are understaffed. At times only 10 crew where in economy alone they need to roll out 10 carts. Many of them have to handle both the galley and a zone, often having to do 2 carts.

Isn't a short stay at the airport hotel not an option?

Do you have anything positive to say?
If you actually watched the video you would have heard plenty of it.
What’s the name of the song?!
Most Arlist songs are Shazamable.
my worst air travel with Qartar.
Insightful.
Very high quality video
Thank you
Thanks for watching 🩴
Qatar q suite or emirates first class 777?
Depends on price tbh. Dollar for dollar of course Emirates F is better.
I can't justify the xxxtra money for business class
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
All it takes is one business-class flight to change your mind.
Loving the content mate. How do you get so many business class flights?
I… book them! 😂 Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel 🙏🏻
@@tfft there is no way that actually made me laugh. Someone broke my humour 😂. I mean they are expensive and when someone like me don’t face a deep wallet is there a way you find them on the cheap. Or with miles?
Your very detailed😊😊😊
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Is qsuit smaller than emirates a380 business class?
I've never personally measured Emirates seats, but I would guess yes they are a bit bigger. Thanks for watching & Happy New Year 🎉
@@tfft 👍 Happy new year
hello. quick suggestion - most people like to see the food menu in detail. I think if you split up the appetizers/mains/dessert (just crop the image so its zoomed in), and give them 5 seconds each, you'll get a a fair amount of interest in that section.
What you're suggesting is certainly another way I may go in the future. From the four trip reports from JL and QR I'm tracking how many people actually do pause the video at the menus so that I can determine the best way to go for future flights. Trying to balance the fact that: 1. some people cannot easily zoom in, 2. some people are more interested in the drink offering, 3. some as you say want to focus on the food, 4. some want to see every square inch of the thing :) we shall see what it evolves to, but certainly may well be as you describe. Thanks for watching 🙏
Hello Benjamin Breeg. Quick suggestion - most people like to see your mouth shut in detail. I think if you split up your tongue/lips/mouth (just crop the vocal cords so it's zoomed out), and give them 5 seconds each, you'll get a a fair amount of interest in that section.
@@DF-bx9hd That’s a bit harsh. Simmer down.
@@HRHBailey77W You're a bit harsh. Simmer down.
If you booked qsuite and they had to switch aircraft, would they let you change to the one with qsuite?
Standard change procedures, fare differences and fees would apply. You’re buying transport in a specified class of service, not in a specified seat.
Nice aviation report.
Thanks very much for watching 🙏🏻
¡Gracias!
Gracias por el apoyo 🙏🏻🙏🏻
god such a boring monologue by 6 mins had enough.
Well you’re a charming fella aren’t ya? Thanks for the comment though, since even rude ones benefit the video 😍
FYI, all of the excitement, pyrotechnics and jazz hands generally start at the seven minute mark.
Worst food ever 😔
What on earth do you eat at home? lol
Qatar Airways ticks all the boxes & would be my airline of choice when we fly from SYD to LHR . However during COVID restriction there was an incidence in 2020 whereby nine Australian women taken off a Qatar Airways flight bound for Sydney on 2nd October 2020 and led through the bowels of the Hamad International airport to what appeared to be a dark carpark or turning circle, where three ambulances were waiting to perform medical examinations to determine if any of the women had recently given birth because a newly born baby was found abandoned in one of the airport bath room .The 9 women were told to remove their underwear in order to be examined. The Australian foreign affairs minister at that time , Marise Payne, said it was a “a grossly, grossly disturbing, offensive, concerning set of events”. I knew it is not the fault of Qatar Airways . However the treatment of those 9 Australian women are contravened to the basic human rights so Doha airport should be avoided at all cost unless you want to be strip searched
This channel makes videos about flights and hotels and I hope that is what the discussion remains about. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Exactly why I wouldn't fly Qatar. As a female I don't want to run the risk of assault which is exactly what happened to these women. I don't care how good they are. Their hub makes it a dangerous location for a female.
Outstanding trip report!
Thanks very much for watching 🙏
